Unblocking and balancing your chakras can be a powerful way to release or heal stagnant energy, and understanding these colors can aid in your chakra work. Keeping this in mind, working with a particular chakra color can help you draw that color’s energy—or frequency—into your life. When deciding on a color to incorporate into your practice, consider what energy you are looking for right now. Then, scan the list below to find the color that corresponds to it. Alcantara recommends working with your chosen chakra color(s) using visualization: Picture that color as a sphere of light that exists in your body and watch it grow and radiate. Visualize it becoming stronger and more vibrant with each breath. If you’re into crystals, you can also seek out a stone that corresponds to your chosen color and work it into your spiritual practice. Hold it during meditation, add it to your altar, or carry it around as a reminder of an intention. The more we understand about the chakras, the better we can work with them to live balanced and aligned lives. If you think any of your chakras could be blocked, working with their colors is a great way to start getting back into balance. And if you want to move past colors and dig deeper into the subtle energies of each chakra, here are some more chakra-balancing tips.
